Two Employees and a Boss

Tom and Jerry started the same job shortly after completing their studies. Both began to work very hard. For a while, Tom promoted but the position of the jerry remained same. Everything went fine for a few days, but then Jerry didn’t suffer much. He approached his Superior and resigned, saying, “You have no appreciation for hard work. You only promote flattery people. “That’s too much.

The superior knew that Jerry was trying too hard, but he explained to Jerry the difference between him and Tom’s work and said to Jerry, “Go to the market and check if anyone is selling a watermelon . “Jerry checked the market according to Superior and came back and answered yes, only one shopkeeper sells watermelon. At what price for selling kilo? – superior ask him . Jerry went back to the market and inspected the price. after returning jerry came to superior and said, ” 12 dollars per kg”

In the presence of the Jerry, Superior now entrusted the same task to Tom but didn’t tell him to ask the price.(just like he did in Jerry’s task) after some time when tom came back, he told his superior that,” only one shopkeeper sells a watermelon, at 12 dollars a kilo and 100 dollars for 10 kg. he has a total of 340 watermelons, 58 of which he has put forward on the table for sale. Each of the watermelon weights about 15 kg. He bought all these goods from the southern market just two days ago, all the watermelons are nice, fresh, reddish and tasty. “

Jerry saw this – heard it and was impressed with Tom too. He soon understood the difference between himself and Tom. He decides to withdraw his resignation and learn to work under Tom’s hands. A successful man is a good observer, thinks very well and understands everything deeply. They try to look at it wholeheartedly, taking on one thing. While the general public simply chooses to take the next step considering the current situation. The successful man then chooses the next idea.

Summary:

(From an Employee’s view point )

Now, if you do not get a promotion and meet your partner, keep thinking about your own performance rather than taking a complaint to the boss.

(From the view point of Boss)

Not everyone is same even if they are qualified equally. To understand your Employees you have to be a good observer. always listen from both sides then observe deeply because one wrong decision can demotivate all and one right decision can encourage all.
